No, they're not logical. The weapon is already here. That's why it's a straw man.
Surely your comment didnt reach the inanity of well, its OK to make it, but nobody should get excited about it, right?
No, it went straight to the crux, which is that we face a tyrannical police state armed with these weapons and MUST devise strategy to be able to deter it or lose our freedom for ourselves and our children or die in futility fighting it. I don't find either prospect attractive. It is entirely logical, nor am I the only FReeper who saw that on this thread. Apparently it eluded you, which is illogical given the reality of those in power.
That such would not occur to you is indication of an obsession with an enemy that has blinded you to an even greater hazard. I'd say you took the bait.
Revelation 13:4
And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
It “eluded” me because it’s irrelevant. Infantry tactics are the same no matter where you go or who you fight. Seeking cover isn’t even something that really has to be taught. All you can see is some SWAT clown killing children with it. Fine. I see the engagements my Soldiers and I were in in Iraq and how incredibly useful this weapon would have been, and I’m very glad our guys will now have it to hopefully eliminate that most basic tenet of squat combat for the enemy.
But, please, don’t let me keep you from fretting in the dark all by yourself. It seems to make you happy.
